Super freeze and low ambient switch
(In some models)
low ambient switch
a) Super freezing: If ambient temperature is more than 18°C, This switch can be used
as superfreeze switch.
Super freeze switch should be used for freezing the fresh food or when the RED
lamp on the head panel is ON. (RED lamp on the head panel becomes ON
when there is insufficient cooling).
The appliance will work longer when you activate this switch. So after you get the
cold condition (or the Red lamp on the head panel is off) you must return to
previous position.
At the ambient temperature more than 18°C, if superfreezing function doesn’t
want to be used, it must always be set to OFF position.
b) Low ambient performance: If ambient temperature is less than 18°C, this switch
can also be used as a low ambient switch for good low ambient performance.
In low ambient temperatures, this switch heats the fridge part to prevent extra
cooling / freezing.

PART 3.
ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator Compartment
• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the
evaporator and in time will require more frequent defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at
room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the
refrigerator compartment.
• Nothing should touch to refrigerator back wall as it will cause frost and the packages
can stick here. Do not open the refrigerator door too frequently.
• Arrange the meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) which
you will use in 1-2 days.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing.
Freezer Compartment
• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen food for long periods of time and
making ice cubes.
• Do not put fresh and warm food to the freezer door shelves to be frozen. Only use for
storage of frozen food.
• Do not put fresh and warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen
food.
• While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in parts you will
use in one time.
• For storing the frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should
always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should not be
stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures
and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality
of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest
possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the
contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions
printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and the food which is wanted to
freeze) more quickly because of the freezing room’s greater freezing power. Fast
fr eezin g sh elves are the mid d le d rawers of the freezer c o mp artment
(see in page 16 - 17).
